Color Laser 1355CNW

With built-in wireless on top of Ethernet networking, the Dell 1355CNW is the 1355-line printer for offices that want color laser without the cabling hassle — laptops, desktops and mobile devices all reach it as one shared resource. Wireless convenience should not come with expensive toner, and the high-yield family keeps it reasonable: black 331-0778 (short code 810WH), cyan 331-0777 (C5GC3), magenta 331-0780 (XMX5D) and yellow 331-0779 (WM2JC), each color sold singly under either of its two Dell designations. Compatible cartridges from Clever Supplies cut color printing costs sharply against OEM list prices, and genuine OEM remains available for purists.

Flexible workspaces print in flexible patterns: a laptop docked for the morning, a phone printing a boarding pass, a desktop across the room sending a report. The common thread is that nobody owns the supplies, so the high-yield set stretches replacement intervals and shrinks the number of times the shared printer cries for attention. Fast shipping on both compatible and OEM stock keeps the arrangement painless.

Toner Cartridges for Dell 1355CNW

Which cartridge should you buy?

Order for the way a shared wireless printer actually consumes: black first, in multipacks, because text dominates office printing and the black listings run to 2-, 3- and 5-packs. Colors go one at a time as singles — when a single color runs out, that is the only slot to refill. The full sets make sense at setup time or when the whole family is aging together, and the bigger bundles (five, six and eight cartridges) suit offices that would rather restock once a quarter than once a month. The premium compatible line is there for polished, client-facing color; the standard compatible line covers everyday work. All compatible cartridges carry a 1-year warranty and 1-year returns.

Chip, toner and everyday use

A fading color on this printer is the classic sign that the matching cartridge is nearly empty: check the levels, and if one color is nearly gone, replace just that cartridge. Wireless printing adds one comfort — swapping a cartridge changes nothing about the network setup, so every connected device keeps printing without reconfiguration. Seat the new cartridge until it clicks so its chip registers, and if a level still reads old afterward, reseat it once. Keep the next round of cartridges sealed and stored flat; toner waits patiently, and a ready spare turns a stoppage into a two-minute task.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the correct cartridge number for the Dell 1355CNW?

Black 331-0778 (810WH), cyan 331-0777 (C5GC3), magenta 331-0780 (XMX5D) and yellow 331-0779 (WM2JC). If your printer arrived as part of a bundle or from another region, double-check the code on the installed cartridge first — the label on the cartridge in the machine always wins.

My 1355CNW prints faded colors — is a cartridge dying?

Often, yes: a fading color points to the matching cartridge running low. Check the toner levels, and if one color is nearly empty, replace that cartridge only. The others may have plenty left, and the printer tracks each slot separately.

How long does a 1355CNW cartridge last?

There is no fixed timespan — a cartridge lasts for the pages you print, not the months it sits installed. Light users often get a year or more from one set; heavy users replace cartridges several times a year. Judge by pages and coverage, not by the calendar.

Do I need to reconnect devices after changing a cartridge?

No. A toner swap is a mechanical change only — network settings, wireless connections and drivers are untouched. Open the cover, exchange the cartridge, close up, and every laptop and phone that printed before will print again.
